The Ghostbusters Finally Return — in Manga Form!

Here at Vulture, we've made no secret of our love for Ghostbusters and our fervent desire for a new addition to the series, we hope starring McLovin as Louis Tully Jr. Apparently our increasingly giddy Ghostbusters 3 coverage has at least gotten the attention of manga publisher Tokyopop, who leaped into the ectoplasmic void this month with the publication of Ghost Busted, a collection of manga-ized Ghostbusters stories. Sure, it's a licensed-property comic — not usually the home of innovative work — but it's also really funny, and a great way to sate your Venkman jones until Seth Rogen finally makes up his mind about the long-awaited Ghostbusters 3.
On today's Comics Page, we're happy to present an excerpt from Matt Yamashita and Maximo Lorenzo's "The Theater of Pain," a story from Ghostbusters: Ghost Busted, a new manga collection out now from Tokyopop.
